Simi Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon

From the producer:

"From a winery started by two brothers who immigrated from Italy in the mid-1800s, later passed down to Giuseppe's 18-year-old daughter Isabelle Simi who became a female pioneer in the wine industry, leading the business through prohibition, SIMI is now one of Sonoma's longest-standing institutions. 'Wine is all about the nose, and putting it to the grindstone.' Isabelle Simi knew this better than anyone. She steered the winery with defiant determination for over 70 years, persevering to better every last drop. In fact, in 1920, when the government threw down a deadly blow, in the form of Prohibition, she didn't give up. She rolled up her sleeves and applied her wit. She held strong. And came out even stronger in the end. Great wine begins in the vineyard, which is why SIMI made its home in the heart of the spectacular Sonoma County over 140 years ago. Our specialized and diverse Alexander Valley and Russian River Valley vineyards allow us to craft a remarkable range of wines, from powerful, nuanced Cabernet Sauvignons to cool, elegant Chardonnays."
